    Chemical equation: NH₃ (g) + O₂ (g) → NO (g) + H₂O (l).

    Oxidation reaction: N⁻³ → N⁺² + 5e⁻ / *4.

    Reduction reaction: O₂⁰ + 4e⁻ → 2O⁻² / *5.

    Oxidation reaction: 4N⁻³ → 4N⁺² + 20e⁻.

    Reduction reaction: 5O₂⁰ + 20e⁻ → 10O⁻² / *5.

    Balanced chemical equation: 4NH₃ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 4NO (g) + 6H₂O (l).

    Ammonia (NH₃) reacts with oxygen (O₂) and form nitrogen (II) oxide (NO) and water (H₂O). Catalyst is this reaction is platinum (Pt).

    This is combustion reaction.
